Three grenade incidents were reported at targets linked to the Mosli crime family in Tel Aviv, Herzliya, and Ness Ziona on Monday evening, according to reports. Later clarifications indicated that in Tel Aviv it was a single scene, and a striker was found at another location. No casualties were reported; a cat was killed in Ness Ziona, and a stolen military fragmentation grenade was found at one scene. The attacks mark an escalation in the ongoing feud between the Mosli and Jarushi organized crime groups.
The Zioneer has been tracking an escalating feud between the Mosli and Jarushi organized crime families, which has seen a series of grenade attacks and security incidents in recent weeks. Monday evening's attacks were initially reported as three grenade throws at Mosli-linked targets in Tel Aviv, Herzliya, and Ness Ziona, but later clarifications indicated that the Tel Aviv incident involved a single scene, and a striker (firing pin) was found at another location, suggesting that some devices may not have been functional grenades. No casualties were reported other than a cat killed in Ness Ziona. A stolen military fragmentation grenade was found at one scene. The Zioneer previously reported on two grenade explosions in south Tel Aviv earlier Monday evening that left one person lightly wounded, and on a grenade thrown at a home in Kfar Shalem in July. The ongoing feud, characterized by protection rackets and territorial disputes, continues to drive violence across central Israel.
